Why Home Compost?

* About one third of household waste is kitchen and garden waste that can be composted.

* Composting is an easy and effective way of diverting this waste from landfill and putting it to use.

* Making your own compost also saves money as you don’t have to buy compost and as it is nutrient-rich there is no need to buy fertiliser either.

* Compost prevents soil erosion and improves yields on plants and vegetables.

* Compost builds sound root systems in soils and can extend the growing season.

* Home composting avoids unnecessary transport costs and exhaust fumes to the environment
